More than a year later it was reported that a fuel line was improperly reinstalled resulting it it vibrating loose and causing the failure. Is general aviation becoming too dangerous to fly in private planes?<br /><br />Rod Knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14028117522559695331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-36877508470008747212019-04-05T19:25:19.302-05:002019-04-05T19:25:19.302-05:00What a remarkable young lady.

For a 17 year old female in that abnormal/emergency event to overcome her initial fright of the problem is commendable...she got the airplane and herself down in one piece. Any damage to the airplane is fixable in this case. The ATC facility handled the problem as did her CFI's talking her down with assurance. Radio "professionalism" is NOT something that is important in this situation with a 17 year old STUDENT PILOT! The important thing is getting the aircraft back on the ground safely and walking away without a scratch.CFI/MEI 9000https://www.blogger.com/profile/14989034376023238745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-63822666343328004652019-04-05T09:49:55.635-05:002019-04-05T09:49:55.635-05:00I'll take her as an heir if she's not good...I'll take her as an heir if she's not good enough for some of you bastards.

All you palm pilots criticizing radio discipline in this case need to go back to playing fortnite and eating cheetos instead of criticizing the Man in the Arena.
